Description 1 online resource (132 pages) Contents Book Cover; Title; Copyright; Contents Summary This highly innovative work on poetic influence among women writers focuses on the relationship between modernist poet Elizabeth Bishop and her mentor Marianne Moore. Departing from Freudian models of influence theory that ignore the question of maternal presence, Joanne Diehl applies the psychoanalytic insights of object relations theorists Melanie Klein and Christopher Bollas to woman-to-woman literary transactions. She lays the groundwork for a far-reaching critical approach as she shows that Bishop, mourning her separation from her natural mother, strives to balance gratitude toward Moore Notes Print version record Subject Bishop, Elizabeth, 1911-1979 -- Criticism and interpretation Moore, Marianne, 1887-1972 -- Criticism and interpretation SUBJECT Moore, Marianne, 1887-1972 -- Criticism and interpretation Bishop, Elizabeth, 1911-1979 -- Criticism and interpretation Bishop, Elizabeth, 1911-1979 fast Moore, Marianne, 1887-1972 fast Subject Feminism and literature -- United States -- History -- 20th century Women and literature -- United States -- History -- 20th century Influence (Literary, artistic, etc.) -- History -- 20th century American poetry -- Women authors -- History and criticism Authorship -- Sex differences -- History -- 20th century Feminist poetry, American -- History and criticism Psychoanalysis and literature -- United States Poets, American -- 20th century -- Psychology Modernism (Literature) -- United States Women poets, American -- Psychology Poetry -- Psychological aspects Creative ability. creativity.
